“Fine.” I pat Lily on the head, then stalk to the other side of the room. “I’m pretty hungry, though.”
The closer I get, the easier it is to see the brown of her eyes turn into deep shit. “This will only take a minute.”
I’m totally at a loss on how or why I’ve pissed her off.
We step outside, and she shuts the door. I’m still wearing my scarf, but see she isn’t, so offer it to her, since I am a gentleman, despite being tattooed in every place possible. She accepts it, but won’t meet my stare.
“What’s up?” I ask, since she’s not eager to speak now that we’re alone. “You couldn’t have done this when my testicles were turning into snowballs, cooking everyone’s dinner?”
“I had to get up the nerve.”
“Why are you scared? As far as I remember, I left you satisfied the last time I had you naked.”
She jolts, surprised by my bluntness. Well, that’s how I am, sweetheart, even though we didn’t really get to know each other before we fucked each other.
“I…I don’t know how to say this.”
I lean an elbow on the balcony railing. “When that happens, I find it’s easier to just say it.”
She licks her lips and I wince, because soon that delectable mouth of hers, so plump and warm around my dick, are going to turn to popsicles. Poor, Florida girl, dumped in this polluted winter city. She shoulda waited until spring to visit. In a few days at least, she gets to go back to palm trees, and I wish her well.
At last, her eyes meet mine. I arch a brow. “Well?”
“I’m pregnant.”
